The dismaying message here is that President Obama's policies have become part of the economy's problem. * * * But after five weeks in office, it's become clear that Mr. Obama's policies are slowing, if not stopping, what would otherwise be the normal process of economic recovery. From punishing business to squandering scarce national public resources, Team Obama is creating more uncertainty and less confidence -- and thus a longer period of recession or subpar growth.

the stock market went up when FDR first took office. That was the key to blaming Hoover for all the other problems.
Isn’t this what he wants? He wants capitalism to fail.
The headline alone is brilliant.
When Barry can not find anyone else to blame maybe the falling will end. (Ok, if it says that in the story - oops just read the headline.)
Hey Bamster - blame Reid and Pelosi.
Wait...did he blame Bush yet? I’m surprised that Pelosi and Reid have not blamed Bush either...maybe they think he did a good job?
I don’t think this is what the clinton liberals wanted. They want their iphones and e-trade and plasma tv’s. Instead they will have to dig ditches to fill with concrete.

I can’t believe these Marxist idiots are not still blaming President Bush. I thought that would last for decades.
It appears that our dead kitten bounce this morning has shot its wad.

The buck stops where?
I am at home today with a sick child. I have been able to watch the Senate hearings with Bernacke. If everyone could watch this I believe that the country could see what the REAL problem is. These people in Congress created a LOT of this mess. yes they passed the law that gave the banks the ability to be a commercial bank and an Insurance company and all things.. They passed all the legislation that encouraged lending to those who had no way to pay back the debt. Today they are literally grilling Bernacke and saying things like “The people in my state” blah blah...
The Congess is the problem folks! Turn it on and watch. Even the Repubs on this committee are just horrible. It’s amazing that we as voters don’t fire them all.
The “Town Idiots” who elected “O” are running out of patience rather quickly.
He owns the economy now. His lack of experience will kill this country but he doesn’t care. Recall?
That oughta help.
That was one skinny kitten.
On a more cheerful note. Will the American Public ever seriously consider another “RAT” for the Presidency after this debacle?
I would hope not!
“Dead kitten bounce...”
You, sir, have a gift of a well-turned phrase. ;-)
I'm getting to like that more and more as a bumper sticker. Right now I have “Honk if you will pay my mortgage”, and I have another I'm shying away from putting on the car which says, “YOUR mortgage is not MY problem”. Shying away because I don't know what kind of lunatic may pull up behind me and may take that one personal.
Thanks.
It seems a lot of Dave’s are blessed with the gene to refine phrases to match today’s world.
